Every student is guaranteed to catch a fish!
http://www.prometheanplanet.com/us/server/show/ConResource.8815 This is a comprehensive, engaging overview of catabolic pathways that yield energy by oxidizing organic fuel. Students explore redox reactions, oxidation, reduction, and preview the stages of cellular respiration.

Earth & Space
http://www.prometheanplanet.com/us/server/show/ConResource.9369 This flipchart is about the geography of the ocean floor. It contains information about the continental shelf, continental slope, abyssal plain, and other ocean floor features. The flipchart contains video and Activote questions.
Highlights:
Shift in thinking: Planning with an awareness of resources
As you use the board will find deeper uses for it – gradual process
Take time to explore with the board
Use existing examples for inspiration
It is more than a glorified overhead projector – mark, capture(w/ sound), save, send, zoom, spotlight
Add search words to get interactive sites for better board use. Ex. Whiteboard, smartboard, polyvision, whiteboard
Don't reinvent - look for resources online for interactive whiteboards - even for other brands of boards
Uses shared by participants:
Use board set up as a station (students rotate to other activity stations with one being a board station) so that they can get a chance to use an interactive, mark up, etc. - could be captured for each group
